The fender extension is Kuryakyn #9016, I picked it up on eBay for $30 shipped. It does help keep the road schmutz to a minimum on the Jagg low mount oil cooler and is holding up well; I bolted it on then used a hair dryer to heat up the adhesive to activate it and it's been solid ever since...

Appreciate that info! I actually was thinking it was a Harley part as I saw them at one time in the Harley store online. Might have actually been for softails though. And yep just found a bunch on EBay for $30ish

If the Biltwell isn't waterproof, may want to store a small trash bag in it too. Live and learn..... tp
Biltwell did include drain holes in the main compartment, so there was a plan there. I added a large ziplock bag to the contents in case there was anything that I couldn't easily dry out.

Had a fork seal weeping oil , made a seal mate replica out of a milk carton and it solved my problem no more leak. I need to pay more attention when polishing my forks !!

Default Modified my Screaming Eagle Slip On's

Can't afford to change them right now but I've been surfing to find out how to improve the flow and sound, they were too quiet for me. So I pulled the baffles out and modified them for better flow and sound. The bike sounds so much deeper now, I'm very happy with the results. Took it for a test ride and it actually feels like it gained some power.

Correct it is my opinion only. I also hated all the metal fender tip pieces on my EGlide. Would much rather have had a StreetGlide style fender when I had that bike!!!!

Today I ordered on tires for the new wheelset that's on order (18" X 3 1/2" and 18" X 5 1/2" RSD Morris). After a bunch of research I decided on Avon Cobra's, due to the round tread profile and good reviews.
I will be using a modified V-Rod front fender (5" wide) due to the extra width of the front tire, the stock 100/90-19 is 4.3 inches wide, the new 130/70-18 is 4.7" wide and 0.6 inches shorter at 25.5 inches tall. The new rear tire is the same height as stock at 25.8" tall, but wider at 7.2"'. This should sharpen up the handling a bit, I am looking forward to to feeling how radial tires work on the Dyna.

Avon AV71 130-70 ZR 18 Front
Avon AV72 180-55 ZR 18 Rear
